Bird Words

by Terry Michael Riley
(Lake City, AR. USA)

The sanctuary of a back porch lounge
My place of rest and contemplation
Each morning I sit with contentment
Enjoying the feathered serenade

The questioning coo of the mourning dove
WHO - ARE - YOU - YOU - YOU?
The mocking bird answers -
PRETTY - PRETTY - PRETTY BIRD

All the thrush then sing in harmony
Their auditions to Harry Potter

DUMBLEDORE? DUMBLEDORE?
SNEAK - A PEEK!
KEEP - KEEP - TRACKING -
WAY - HIGH!
A - OGLING LOOK
YOU WILL SEE? YOU WILL SEE?
O'WARBING ME!
